The first half of the trail runs along the fence near the tip; as such, it can smell pretty ripe in summer. Once you reach the corner of the park and turn back downhill, you are greeted with views of the farmland around Bathurst and a mild descent running through the trees.

If riders are heading into Learn 2 Fly they can pick up some speed before heading into the steep drop-in. Otherwise, keep right to follow The Pinnacle to a milder (but still fairly steep) slope that ends on the access road near Trident.
